Chapter 80: Throw the Bait
As they entered the grand halls of the Eastern Duchy’s estate, the steward led Adeline and Dimitri to a set of comfortable guest rooms overlooking the gardens.
Looking at all the furniture and design, Adeline fell deep in thought. The steward was talking about something but she didn’t listen
With Dimitri here, why worry? He will tell her.
Once the steward left, Dimitri decided to go to his room and clean up. He looked at Adeline who was lost in thought. He called out to her.
"Adeline, what are you thinking?"
She was looking intently at the furniture, the carpets and the curtains.
"Hmm? Nothing much. I thought of hiring the Duchess as the interior designer for my room back at home. Just look at this. It’s beautiful!"
Dimitri was left speechless. Well, that was Adeline for you. Only she would think about asking the Eastern Duchess to design her room.
Adeline didn’t think much of her comment, she absolutely loved the aesthetic. She could see that her room was designed with her in mind. She peeked at Dimitri’s room, it was very different.
The Duchess had great taste indeed.
After settling in, the steward returned to inform them that the Duchess was currently preoccupied with business matters, and the Duke was away at the moment.
